Enforcement procedure
The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) is responsible for enforcing the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018 (the ‘accessibility regulations’). If you’re not happy with how we respond to your complaint, contact the Equality Advisory and Support Service (EASS).
Technical information about this website’s accessibility
NIHPO and School Web Desgin is committed to making its website accessible, in accordance with the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018.
Compliance status
This website is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.2 AA standard, due to the non-compliances and exemptions listed below.
The full guidelines are available at:
Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.2
Non-accessible content
The content listed below is non-accessible for the following reasons.
Non compliance with the accessibility regulations
Some images do not have a text alternative, so people using a screen reader cannot access the information. This fails WCAG 2.2 success criterion 1.1.1 (Non-text Content).
Some PDF document downloads currently lack a title that describes their topic or purpose. This fails WCAG success criterion Page Titled 2.4.2.
Some of our PDFs and Word documents may not be structured, so they’re accessible to a screen reader. Some of these PDFs and Word documents are essential to providing our services. For example, we have PDFs with information on how users can access our services and forms published as Word documents. This does not meet WCAG 2.2 success criterion 4.1.2 (name, role value)
There are some occurrences of badly formatted links either with text that is not descriptive enough, e.g. click here or have the full web address e.g. https://www. rather than formatted link text. This fails WCAG success criterion 2.4.4 Link Purpose (In Context).
Disproportionate burden
There's no way to skip the repeated content in the page header (for example, a 'skip to main content' option).
It's not always possible to change the device orientation from horizontal to vertical without making it more difficult to view the content.
Content that’s not within the scope of the accessibility regulations
We do not plan to add captions to videos
Some content or documents are provide by third parties and it may not be possible to update.
What we’re doing to improve accessibility
School Web Design we perform regular checking to add improvements when possible.
